2:11 pm
now these numbers may not be at their peak at the moment they do admit that there's still a lot of room for improvement in this regard but the number the population itself and the potential that they hold is clearly not to be ignored by the by the world in this case the actual summit will start to morrow but there have been meetings between the russian president and the leaders of various countries today he's been meeting with the indian prime minister the south african president as well as chinese president hu jintao to as this is an economic forum the cannot ignore the what's happening in the world so we can't just stick to economic problems another issue of course is the issue in libya now we know that the four countries out of five that brazil russia india and china did abstain from voting on resolution nine hundred seventy three which allowed the. air strikes on libya but something did vote in favor of that however still the consensus here is that they are not happy with what nato is doing in libya now are we did hear from the chinese side
2:12 pm
that maybe maybe raise they're going to show a strong front against this rule by the west all the countries here do agree that cooperation is needed not as in terms of the economic solutions they are to find but also in the political arena especially before they go to the g. twenty that will happen in a very in france now that definitely is a. shift in the global politics the dynamics of the world moving away from the western countries to those countries in the regions that make up the brics while the old world order may be pumping money down the drain on war in libya the new world order is fighting battles that can be won on the world's money and trade markets brazil russia india china and this year's new kid on the block south africa have gathered on the chinese island of hainan to talk business and it's not just about economy it's about politics as well though the brics countries do put
2:13 pm
a heavy emphasis on economic issues broader political questions such as the situation in northern africa and the middle east are also going to be hot topics for discussions the recount to stare all. or un resolutions was very wise in terms of we're not going to get involved in this mess in fact when the french and the british were drastic the resolution there were serious objections from the four countries brazil russia india china traditionally it was always the u.s. and major western nations like france and germany going to leading roles in politics and economy but if you take into consideration the ongoing financial crisis and the fact that breaks countries comprise more than half of the world's population and pull in almost a quarter of the world's g.d.p. it becomes obvious that a certain geopolitical shift in power isn't progress for that there are several reasons these are the emerging powers of the twenty first century europe as we all
2:14 pm
know is absolutely dead economically politically has no leads and on speaking out even organized foreign policy it's a fearful continent car countries there are have been less affected by the crisis than have the european countries the united states and these are countries that are going to continue to grow if not rapidly moderate. while the rest of europe and the united states seems to be mired in in crisis european leaders themselves admit to losing stable ground in recent years everything that we have taken for granted for two centuries american and european dominance to the point at which most of the world's manufacturing goods most of the world's exports most of the world's investment was done in these countries is no longer a fact so it seems europe and the us are finally beginning to understand the
2:15 pm
emerging power brakes nations i think the western countries are already and. the strength of the brics economy is. expanding what was to this leave the g eight now it's the twenty and it is within the g twenty really the brics countries have been playing a joint. thing which has been very effective i certainly think that there will be changes in the economic architecture i think that's inevitable as these countries grew up while the western powerhouses continue pounding away on regimes they find undesirable a new economic and political architecture is emerging and these five countries are keen to prove they're not just another brick in the wall it goes court t.v. sonia china. the nato led international group has wrapped up a meeting in qatar discussed how to proceed with its military intervention in libya while calling on gadhafi to step down the group agreed to provide the rebels with
2:16 pm
some sort of unspecified material support your one goal times read through the transcend page university says france and the u.k. try to bolster their positions in africa nato. there's a very heavy chance of a ground invasion and i think we have to see it in a sort of grand perspective this is not under the us empire but western imperialism colonialism in a last stage making desperate efforts to regain something of what they lost and france was the biggest colonial country and a cause england hold the same size these two together dominated africa they think they have found an opening in libya that they can use at the same time as the us is practically speaking bankrupt forty one percent of it all of this been fed through the goes to servicing that. at the same time i think that when france and nato really entered some years ago they put some very strong conditions for t.
2:17 pm
and three and i belong to those who at the time thought the car this is because he's planned he wants to dominate nato and maybe obama in a sense is willing to give some of that to him in order to get out because obama is now fighting six muslim countries at the same time. now so course they want a ground war because they know fervently a way that they are not trapped by their own propaganda this is not a humanitarian action this is a regime change and they are linked to the people in bring say they know that they are in a bit weak position and they were hoping that by quick action they could obtain what they want. good news in brief suicide bombers killed at least ten in an attack on tribal elders in eastern afghanistan a close ally of president karzai was killed in the blast the attacker approached the elders after a meeting before detonating explosives strapped to his body but taliban has denied

2:20 pm
point that fuel is coming out of them and you just can't work under those conditions and nor can electronic instruments work under those conditions because what happens is that microchips run the robots just don't operate when the grady asian field gets up to a certain level we do know that the nuclear industry is very powerful is very powerful lobbying system and there's an enormous amount of money running on the back of the nuclear industry is from uranium shares and people who have shares in the development of nuclear and so on so it would be an absolute disaster to have to admit that this was a serious as it was and i think it was shockingly responsible of you know nearly criminally responsible for these people to top down the accident in the way that they did i'm basing my predictions on on the health effects of the two not all accidents but four hundred thousand people will develop cancer in the two hundred kilometer radius if they are not moved we're talking about a seven point eight million people living inside that two hundred kilometer radius . make predictions there from environmental christopher busby talking about earlier

many questions needed are searing. more than any emergency that could happen to a cosmonaut during a flight and in reality they really experience all this i had to endure once during a test to find a safe angle for an emergency landing seat i was thrown from a fourteen me to height just like that freefall another time i spent thirteen hours in ice cold water to test a spacesuit when the state commission came to check on me in the morning someone said surprised look he's alive. experiments using humans what top secret in the soviet union and it wasn't thing the volunteers were out there. we were brought up that way we weren't afraid of extreme situations there's simply no fear as the space program developed this became more sophisticated the imitation of weightlessness. immersion was invented and soon preceded in many trials one of the
